I just thought you boil them to remove any inherent virus that the HD DVD standard may contain

There's actually a thread about HD-DVD boiling over at AVS if you want to check it out. I just think it's funny nobody said something to the point of, "Wow, this is pretty fuc*ing ridiculous that I have to do this, maybe there's something not quite right." It really amazes me how anyone can be a diehard HD-DVD supporter with the facts that are out there. I liken it to buying a car with 55 horsepower that gets 8 mpg. There's no positive trade off.
